Substance in which the magnetic moment of a single atom is not zero, is know as

A

Diamagnetism

B

Ferromagnetism

C

Paramagnetism

D

Ferrimagnetism

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
The property of paramagnetism is found in these substances whose atoms have an excess of electrons spinning in the same direction. Hence, atoms of paramagnetic substances have a net-zero magnetic moment of their own.
